I stole a meme from gamesiplay; her version is longer and has some very interesting questions, but I was too lazy and just adapted the meme for my own me devices. That said:

( meme about Broadway - and the occasional off - musicals )

eating hard candy alone, listing, meme

Two more days and I can buy tickets for An Evening with Mandy Patinkin and Patti LuPone. I saw Mandy in concert at the Sydney Opera House a couple of years ago and it was a dream come true (have all his cds). I said then that if he ever comes down to Oz again, I was there... And to see Patti LuPone as well...

Les Mis is a favourite. But I'm also a Phantom of the Opera tragic.

Mandy and Patti: KICKIN' double bill! I'm sizzling with envy... stupid stupid Australia being so stupidly far away grumble grumble...

They're touring the US at the moment, schedule here.

I'm impressed he's coming down to Oz again (and New Zealand), he must have enjoyed it down here.

1. SO JEALOUS you saw Joanna Gleason, omg.

2. JCS and Evita are my top two ALW shows, too (though I like some Song and Dance numbers thanks to Bernadette Peters)... mainly, I think, because of the sharper perspective that Judas and Che respectively add to the stories. I'll give ALW this-- when he finds a trick that works, he sticks with it.

3. I had no idea you were such a Fantasticks nerd! I cry every time I hear "Try to Remember."

ALSO. I didn't know you saw Falsettos on Broadway! Original cast or replacements?!

Michael Rupert, baby. Full original cast, THRICE. :P Do you have the same embarrassing crush on Chip Zien that I do? I squee whenever he shows up on some random TV show.

I kind of hate you a little. gamesiplay March 28 2009, 05:14:37 UTC

Oh, god. Now the most important question: can I touch you? *g*

ahahahaha, Chip Zien, I so do. Funnily enough, just last night I was watching an episode of Wonderland (the show Peter Berg did before Friday Night Lights), and there was Chip Zien guest-starring, and I literally screamed, and my roommate came running into my bedroom because she thought our resident mouse had returned. True story.
